Sadly, the autumn is getting closer. Rains and cool mornings aren't all that exciting. But things get better if only I have my mp3-player with me. ♥
This is a very random assortment of songs - but isn't randomness the main concept of this comm?

~vroom vroom~



Adriano Celentano - Ya Tebia Liubliu
Celentano gives me severe (but not unpleasant) fits of nostalgia. He was very popular in the USSR, as an actor and as a singer, and I know some of his songs since I was a kid. In this one he says words of love in Russian, French, German and English.

Plaid - Squance
When my friend heard Plaid playing in my room, she said "That's quite trancey". It is, I guess. Good multi-layered electronic music. If you like it, check out Tekkon Kinkreet OST! It's mega-awesome.

Slow Jam - Back
Nice and smooth easy-listening piece of jazzy Korean music with hints of Bee Gees and Franz Ferdinand. Hm. Nice cocktail. xD

Sol Flower - Kiss The Kids
This is quite amazing, and my player takes a special liking to this song. Intoxicant low female vocal...

Bobby Kim - Lonely Night
This is one of those songs that make me think "Who ever needs OTHER songs? This one alone would be sufficient." And it's just made me think about Orange Range's "Silent Night", which I also highly recommend (not included in the rar).

Enya - Caribbean Blue
Well. I expect that everyone and their great grandmothers know this song, but it doesn't make it less shiny. Brilliant, in fact. The way Enya's voice blends with the music makes my heart tremble~~

Hans Zimmer - Maestro
Hans Zimmer is a great movie music writer. This piece comes off "The Holiday" soundtrack and is immensely beautiful. Check out the music video, it complements the music nicely.

Samim - Heater
HA! Ever heard Miami Pop? This is its brother. xD

Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings - How Long Do I Have To Wait For You?
Funk/soul at its best. ♥

Xavier Naidoo - Seelenheil
Xavier Naidoo is a German singer/songwriter and my German-speaking friend swears his lyrics are witty and burning. I have to trust her on that. I dig the music.

Mikael Tariverdiyev - Dance on the Stadium
Let me share my Soviet pride with you. Tariverdiyev is a famous movie music composer. His music is very Soviet, very 80s and very exciting. Trumpet and rhythm remind me of chases and old discotheques. Please give it a listen.
